Your most-used & favourite mobile apps?

Marjo — Fri, 22 Sep 2017 14:43:52 GMT

Hi everyone and happy Friday!

I just read an article from a while back on Business Insider that listed 10 most-used smartphone apps. Not surprisingly, Facebook was number one!

The list was collected from users in the US... I'd love to hear from all of you what are your most-used and favourite apps?

This is the whole list of the 10 most-used apps in the US mentioned in the article:

Facebook
YouTube
Facebook Messenger
Google Search
Google Maps
Instagram
Snapchat
Google Play
Gmail
Pandora

Cool @MI5 does your phone list them in order like this based on usage? How did you find it?? I'll do that too if it works on my phone! I suspect that your number one is probably the same as mine now that I think of it.

@Anonymous You should post some of your photography here sometime! I'd also get lost without Google Maps. I sometimes even have to use it in the same area where I live...

It's my list based on battery usage in the battery settings - I figured the most used would use the most battery

Thanks for the tip. Here's mine:

Amazon
Bingo Blitz
SimCity
WhatsApp
Safari
Ilta-Sanomat (it's a Finnish news app)
Groceries
Uber
Facebook

@Anonymous Word Cookies! I've played that too quite a lot! Less after discovering the Bingo game though.

Does it also frustrate you when you run out of those "credits" and then cannot play (unless you buy more)? First time I downloaded the game I spent (not kidding) at least 5 hours non-stop playing it until the starter credits ended.

Oh @jonsie you use the Chrome browser on mobile? Is it good? I've downloaded it but haven't really used it (yet).

jonsie — Fri, 22 Sep 2017 16:11:59 GMT

I much prefer Chrome though on the laptops I favour Firefox

Google Play Store

games which are played daily

I practically live in the Google Play Store and Amazon, with Email, Games Launcher and Whatsapp running close seconds.

@Glory1 Hey we both have the same app at 2nd place! You gave me a funny mental image of you actually living in the play store, greeting the customers as they step in!
